MSG is Pitt's home away from home.  They play great here every year and also once this year(See Duke win)  And if I'm not mistaken they get alot of their recruits from the NYC area.  I'm sure that they'll be at this game.  Pitt -8.5

Wait, we've played twice this year, once was a loss at Cinci, once was a close win at home by 6...and now we're favored to win by 8.5?  WTF?
 
Pitt always struggles with fast guards - and Vaughn has lit us up over and over again this year - 6 3's the last time we met.  I'll just be happy if Pitt pulls this one out.  A lot of freshman playing in a tournament for the first time...4 of the 8, or 3 of the 7 if the bench is shortened...

Cincinnati vs. Pitt -8.5 (2 units) - the Panthers have finally put it back together recently with their blowout win against Depaul.  They actually showed their true potential on offense and look to make a good run in both tournaments, they'll definitely be a tough out for any team they face.  The Bearcats have had a rough rough week after having to postpone their game in UConn because of the blizzard in Ohio.  They basically lived in the locker room at their arena for a day in a half while trying to get out to Connecticut.  Once they got there they were handed the biggest loss in Big East history by 40 points.  Also, they didn't even both going home afterwards, they've stayed in Storrs, CT for the past few days and took a charter bus to NYC.  Despite being a young, gritty, physical team none of the players have been to a Big East tourney and none have played in MSG (got that info from some article I read).  I was scared for Pitt when I saw their 1st round matchup but then I started thinking clearly and realizing what Cincy has gone through in the past week.

Pitt should roll over Bearcats with little trouble.  Cinncy's looking very much like a team that reached the end of the road.  5 straight losses SU, 5 of last 6 ATS.  Line's been set with an eye to picking off what's left of the residual effects of their early BEAST success ATS.  But thats old news, a month if you count wins vs doormats Rutgers and St John's.  I don't.  End of the line far as playing Cincy should be traced back to 15 pt loss to Marquette.  From that game on they've pretty much been a mediocre team.

Bottom line is... CINCINNATI SUCKS.... ! I dont mean they are kinda bad, i dont mean they are in a slump... I mean they SUCK! Pitts bench could beat them by 8.5. I bet BIIIGGGG against them when they UCONN and I'll bet BIIIGGG against them today!


PITT -8.5
